[Intro]
I see you trying to slowly turn your back to them
The shadows of who you were, back when you felt condemned
I see you, still denying that you're worth the cost
A friendship's a one-way street that you refuse to cross

[Chorus]
Push them all away and start your silence
The black light of despair's your only guidance

[Verse]
Fading, awaiting a message or some kind of change
Abating the shaking fear that you might need them
And that you're sick and deranged
But paranoia will turn truthful with just one step not taken
The terror that burned in your youth that you'd end up at this crossroads
And walk the path forsaken

[Chorus]
Push them all away, I fucking dare you
Hush thеm, and see how deep this pit's prepared for you
Hateful though you think you'vе been
That straw man you burned is just an effigy
The rage you'll show will make that wretch seem heavenly

He's nothing next to the man who you are yet to be
